Tonight, I’ve received a complaint from Terry Jones, where he’s apparently been slandered and is threatening us with a day in court.
I could do with a day off work, tbh and find it laughable, but that’s how it is.
Given that the mail address that Terry signed up to the site with may be very little used, I have no option but to post this reply on here, with the intention that there is more chance of him seeing it;
Dear “Terry Jones”,
Thanks for your threat of legal action against us.
It’s a shame that you never contacted us first to talk about it, but hey, there you go;
“Now I want this posting on Monday night i noticed that i had been accused of making a comment on this site and slanderouse remarks were made.Therwefore i have had two meetingings with my solicitor over this and on his adivce am demanding a full reraction of those remarks from those involved or if not by Friday 2pm of this week i will be seeking legal addreess what i mean is i will endevour to sue trhe owners of this site and those whom made the remarks in the first place.I will tell you now i mean what i say sand those involvesd can look forward to a day in court unless a public retration is posted on tihis site within the next twelve hours.”
I can only suggest that you visit your solicitor again and get him to explain (in decent English) , exactly what you are talking about, as we don’t have a clue.
As for your threats, they carry no weight whatsoever with me personally and I will happily see you in court.
I will post this reply on the site, just in case this email address I’m responding to is little used on your part.
My opinion says that we should not communicate anymore, except via the e-mail addresses of myself or Ooohah, as provided on the “about the authors” section of the site, where we’ll be happy to reply to any of your solicitor’s questions.
Hence it is with deep regret that you will no longer be able to post on the site.
I look forward to hearing from your solicitor.
Regards,
Badger123.
Now, please don’t laugh or post anything derogatory, as an accusation of this kind has to be taken seriously on our part.
That said, hopefully you know my work situation and I won’t be able to delete any remarks for ages.
And there’s you lot thinking we post a load of crap and earn a fortune for it.
The fact is we run this site in our own time and it costs us money, as we earn nothing from it.
And then you have to deal with this sort of stuff 🙁
WTF?
WTF? x2
It’s a red herring!
Shit brief, isn’t it libel if written, slander if spoken?
What’s he talking about anyway? Who has slandered him and where? Have the ‘lemmings’ turned?
Could turn out to be a cliff hanger.
Hahaha, this is funny! I think there should be tougher restrictions on who is allowed to vote, procreate or express themselves publicly.
What a dumb wanker
Cant wait to meet this guy in court……bring it on!
If you’re going to write a letter of reply at least use spellchecker, haha
Write a letter of complaint that’s meant to be –
Fucking hell just read it im laffing my bollocks off,ain’t the idiot getting enough attention at home or something.let me know when & where this hearing in court is,better stil badger i’l pay the legal fee’s mate that’s a promise.bring it on
Pretty much confirms he’s a bluenose… only a bluenose would threaten to sue one of their own.
I’m sorry but I’m flabbergasted, Terry ? Still cannot get my head around it, TJ, his he losing his mind? Badger123 I’d check to see if its him. And Terry if it is I think there would be lots of posting fans that would disagree in what your saying and doing, I’ve yet to believe its you . Please make it clear to Badger and Oohah as to why.? No one else.
I’m pretty sure Terry is the only person ever to use the word ‘whom’ on this forum.
Just read it again, and yes could be right Foxy. Crying shame that’ we all have our moments me more than some, I like the banter we’ve had with Terry bloody shame, was going to meet up on day and go fishing with him, he knows people I know in Coleshill till he moved.out in the black country now.
Bill TJ’s got some strong views and may rub some people up the wrong way but his bid for this here signed football thing was plainly a pop at the Villa (in others words who’d want it?) but then (imo) Langford then took it all out of context, got all sanctimonious, turned key board warrior and went way over the top (as he is prone to).
Well that’s how I saw it.
BANG ON – Was a mere pop at the way Villa are atm and absolutely nothing to do with the charity. Suddenly he was treated like a terrorist!!!
What a load of bollox BWS….the post was about the charity and NOT about the club….giddy read it the same way as me..of course it would have been funny if it was about Villa…..but it wasnt…he even said himself that it was in ‘bad taste’…….he then tried to wriggle out of it by saying it was a ‘harmless joke’ which proves that his intention all along was to mock the charity NOT the club. If you condone that sort of behaviour, then feel free to sue me anytime. Because IF you do condone it, your a sick twat as well imo.
Langford, you’ve just done it again but still thanks for proving my point.
Done what??….go back and read the post….the first sentence says ‘forget about the game’. Does that not suggest that the post is charity related and NOT football. I actually thought I was doing this site a favour by highlighting it before one of the girls family or friends saw it…hence the reason that I asked for it to be deleted. Anyway, continue to blame me if you wish.
ha-ha. What a thick f**k!
I thunk froom the schpelling toyping TJ must have bean pished. 😛
and his solicitor must have a lot of spare time on his hands.
and as BWS said his solicitor should know that slander is spoken, libel is written.
we’ll just have to wait for TJ’s return under a pseudonym. prizes for the first one to spot him :0
Well this old goat sad its come to this, hope all concerned think twice on actions as we all love our club, and to say all the last 3 posts are probably right,
Yep terry was the only one who agreed with me as well. No idea what it’s all about to be honest but let him get on with suing a site that is potless anyway. Me and Badger get sweet FA for running this site it really is a labour of love. But after that letter I would have just closed the site down if I had my way. But Badger forever the diplomat calmed me down with words of wisdom. Just sick of site getting hassle we don’t need it and not like we earn any money from it anyway to compensate putting up with some posters on here.
Pretty sure if TJ was to sue it would be for defamation (defamatory”, including a statement that tends to lower a person in the estimation of right-thinking members of society, or that tends to cause the person to be shunned or avoided, or that tends to cause the person to be exposed to hatred, contempt or ridicule).
So it looks like he wouldn’t be suing the site but the individual that wrote the alleged defamatory statement.
To be honest BWS he achieved that anyway, he himself many times chastised people with innuendos about their belief, so all in all he’s on a hiding to nothing IMO, I still think its daft of him.
He wasn’t shunned or avoided though or hated for that matter. He was still allowed on the site and still took part like anyone else. Even if he sues whoever it was that upset him that person will probably be able to counter sue against the abuse he has received from TJ. Also that is just some posters opinion not the sites so he wouldn’t have a leg to stand on IMO.
Bring it on ooha can’t wait what the ex took me for this is chicken feed.
Bws are you fucking a member of the bar,like fuck you are so stop spouting crap,tel j was bang out of order does it take me langford on here to fucking see it call yourselves villa fans with a heart other than the fucking club.personally couldn’t give a fuck anymore what bollox
Right thinking members of society giddy, you should be sound as pound.
Where the fuck are you bws sniffing tel j’s harris im fucked off with fucking fans sucking up the fucking arsehole was out of order plain & simple so lay off the genuine fans.
Lennie you take care of them rabbits. Where’s your mate George tonight? Living of the fatty the lan?
Your sick to death of fucking fans sucking up fucking arseholes……you mean like you do with Langford?
Nah we see what we see & there’s no fucking sugar coating it.fucking get it clever
Ok calm down lads.
There’s no need for those sort of comments.
As far as I’m concerned the matter is over.
Let’s just leave it eh?
lets just all take a deep breath…… I think we all need a big hug …!
And probably some Alka Seltzer
Babger you think those comments are acceptable? That’s exactly how they treated tj, ok he got it wrong but George and Lennie went completely OTT as they have again this evening, sorry but the pair of them need to draw their horns in.
Bloody hell lads I’ve only watched a game of football gone to bed picked my tablet up and find the knives are out, Don’t you think that TJ laughing his smelly socks off at you all having a knock at each other, I may be the oldest on here but can still smack ear holes, let’s get back to our problems, Lambert a crap manager, now sue me.
Well said, Bill. All of this doesn’t do anyone any favours.
Incidentally I think we should all start going to the U21s and academy matches instead of the first team. Only costs a few quid to get in, if a few thousand started turning up and there were great big holes at the first team matches I wonder if the owner would get the message?!
Thanks Foxy. Feel just like you and the has to be an answer to make them understand, theirs over a hundred year’s of Villa history here and an American taking the Mickie out of our club and fans, he has no intention of being back on top as a football team, he wants power and money at our cost. Yes good idea and it might work to just not turn up at major agents but turn up at under 21s.
Who does intend to spend over £2bn to restore us to rightful position as champions of England and Europe ?
I shall collect them from BHX personally.
Prat.
I’m going to sue you Vaze.
Lol,a quality come back mate.
Advent, not agents. 🙂 we’ve not got any agents otherwise we wouldn’t be in the shite.
Morning Bill, just telling it how I saw it.
And to answer lennies question no I’m not a member of the bar.
The point I was trying to make was the TJ (from what I’ve read) couldn’t sue the site only the individual(s) but obviously some took umbrage at that.
If TJ does decide to follow that path (which I doubt) I hope he’s got plenty of cash cause it ain’t gonna come cheap.
The law is a rich mans toy to sue for libel costs thousands
